On a Class of Generalized quasi-Einstein Manifolds with Applications to Relativity

Sahanous Mallick, Uday Chand De (2016)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

Quasi Einstein manifold is a simple and natural generalization of Einstein manifold. The object of the present paper is to study some properties of generalized quasi Einstein manifolds. We also discuss G ( Q E ) 4 with space-matter tensor and some properties related to it. Two non-trivial examples have been constructed to prove the existence of generalized quasi Einstein spacetimes.

On a Semi-symmetric Metric Connection in an Almost Kenmotsu Manifold with Nullity Distributions

Gopal Ghosh, Uday Chand De (2016)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

We consider a semisymmetric metric connection in an almost Kenmotsu manifold with its characteristic vector field ξ belonging to the ( k , μ ) ' -nullity distribution and ( k , μ ) -nullity distribution respectively. We first obtain the expressions of the curvature tensor and Ricci tensor with respect to the semisymmetric metric connection in an almost Kenmotsu manifold with ξ belonging to ( k , μ ) ' - and ( k , μ ) -nullity distribution respectively. Then we characterize an almost Kenmotsu manifold with ξ belonging to ( k , μ ) ' -nullity distribution...

On almost cosymplectic (−1, μ, 0)-spaces

Piotr Dacko, Zbigniew Olszak (2005)

Open Mathematics

In our previous paper, almost cosymplectic (κ, μ, ν)-spaces were defined as the almost cosymplectic manifolds whose structure tensor fields satisfy a certain special curvature condition. Amongst other results, it was proved there that any almost cosymplectic (κ, μ, ν)-space can be 𝒟 -homothetically deformed to an almost cosymplectic −1, μ′, 0)-space. In the present paper, a complete local description of almost cosymplectic (−1, μ, 0)-speces is established: “models” of such spaces are constructed,...

On Almost Generalized Weakly Symmetric Kenmotsu Manifolds

Kanak Kanti Baishya, Partha Roy Chowdhury, Josef Mikeš, Patrik Peška (2016)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

This paper aims to introduce the notions of an almost generalized weakly symmetric Kenmotsu manifolds and an almost generalized weakly Ricci-symmetric Kenmotsu manifolds. The existence of an almost generalized weakly symmetric Kenmotsu manifold is ensured by a non-trivial example.

On almost pseudo-conformally symmetric Ricci-recurrent manifolds with applications to relativity

Uday Chand De, Avik De (2012)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The object of the present paper is to study almost pseudo-conformally symmetric Ricci-recurrent manifolds. The existence of almost pseudo-conformally symmetric Ricci-recurrent manifolds has been proved by an explicit example. Some geometric properties have been studied. Among others we prove that in such a manifold the vector field ρ corresponding to the 1-form of recurrence is irrotational and the integral curves of the vector field ρ are geodesic. We also study some global properties of such a...

On Almost Pseudo-Z-symmetric Manifolds

Uday Chand De, Prajjwal Pal (2014)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

The object of the present paper is to study almost pseudo-Z-symmetric manifolds. Some geometric properties have been studied. Next we consider conformally flat almost pseudo-Z-symmetric manifolds. We obtain a sufficient condition for an almost pseudo-Z-symmetric manifold to be a quasi Einstein manifold. Also we prove that a totally umbilical hypersurface of a conformally flat A ( P Z S ) n ( n > 3 ) is a manifold of quasi constant curvature. Finally, we give an example to verify the result already obtained in Section...
